E25: Inside Metro Aviation’s Mission to Save Lives

In this powerful and personal episode recorded live at Verticon, former fighter pilot and host John Ramstead sits down with Kenny Morrow, COO and CFO of Metro Aviation—a company that quite literally helped save his life. Thirteen years ago, Ramstead survived a near-fatal accident thanks to Metro’s life-saving aeromedical services. Now, the tables have turned as he interviews the leaders behind the operation that changed his life. Together, they dive deep into the structure of Metro Aviation, the people-first philosophy that drives its mission, and the bold steps the company is taking to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving aerospace industry. From leadership training and employee care to cutting-edge aircraft like the Airbus H140 and Beta’s electric VTOL, this episode explores how a family-owned company continues to lead with heart and innovate with purpose.
